The Secrets Of South Bank, London

This walk takes you along the South Bank, which until 40 years ago was built up with wharves for handling all sorts of cargo. It was a hive of activity and not at all attractive for tourists or walkers. Today some wharves have been pulled down for modern developments, but many remain and have been converted into leisure use or luxury apartments. Fortunately the conversions have been sensitively done and allow us to appreciate the industrial architecture and even some of the atmosphere of the old Port of London. The views are stunning.
